"Okay, this is WILD. I spent the 7 bucks so you don’t have to. “The Shooting of Charlie Kirk” by Anastasia J Casey, published a DAY before the event, on September 9, 2025. Please take a look at these two pages. Most of the “book” is true about the setting, the shot, etc and then it goes off course of the true events of yesterday and Charlie lives."
Another user, @Diehard_5613, tweeted:
"That book doesn’t come up on Amazon, but THIS one does! Published YESTERDAY. Very weird. Also, notice the odd similarity in the author names: Anastasia J. Casey and Casey D. Parisi."
One more user, @puzziani, posted:
"How is there a 101 page book already, released today, to replace the one that was released the day before Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Amazon. Doesn't show up on mobile at this time, only on desktop. Kevin George? Anastasia J Casey? Pseudonyms for who?"
Another user, @Damian_I_Am, wrote:
"The authors name....Anastasia J. Casey. Anastasia means ressurection.....next 2 initials are JC. You do the math."
